COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF HARDWARE TECHNOLOGIES FOR SKIN REJUVENATION

The article presents a comparative analysis of various hardware technologies used for skin rejuvenation in aesthetic medicine. The basic principles of action, indications, contraindications, expected results and potential side effects of such methods as laser therapy (ablative and non-ablative lasers), photo rejuvenation (IPL), radiofrequency lifting (RF lifting), ultrasonic SMAS lifting (HIFU) and microneedle RF are considered. Special attention is given to the effectiveness of these methods, considering factors such as skin type, patient age, and the severity of aging-related
changes. The technologies are compared based on the depth of penetration, invasiveness, recovery time, and durability of results. The goal of the study is to provide a systematic overview of these technologies to help both specialists and patients make informed decisions about which technique would be most suitable for their individual needs and expectations.
